Water Jet Cutting for Precision Custom Gaskets
When a sealing application calls for accuracy, speed, and material flexibility, Durlon water jet cutting helps turn your gasket requirements into reliable, application-ready components.
Our state-of-the-art water jet cutting table uses a high-intensity pump and 5-axis cutting head to support 3D cutting on sheet sizes up to 6’6” x 10’. The system is designed to cut metal, compressed non-asbestos, and PTFE materials with cutting speeds up to 400 IPM and accuracy of ±0.005”.
Whether you need standard gasket components or a custom design for a demanding service condition, our process supports high-precision production with quick turnaround times. Durlon can cut metal gasket components for applications including spiral wound gaskets and Kammprofile gaskets, with metallurgies ranging from 304 stainless steel to zirconium.
Built for the Outcomes That Matter
For maintenance teams, engineers, OEMs, and purchasing groups, the goal is not just a clean cut. It is getting the right gasket, in the right material, to the right specification, when the job depends on it.
Durlon water jet cutting helps support:
Faster custom gasket production
Reduce delays when a standard gasket will not meet the application requirement.
Precision fit and repeatability
Tight cutting accuracy supports consistent gasket dimensions and dependable installation.
Material flexibility
Cut metal, CNA, and PTFE materials for a wide range of industrial sealing needs.
Support for critical sealing applications
Produce gasket components for demanding applications where dimensional accuracy, material selection, and reliability all matter.
Reduced risk of heat-related distortion
Water jet cutting is a cold cutting process, which helps avoid the heat-affected zones associated with thermal cutting methods. This can help preserve material properties and dimensional stability in precision-cut parts.
